What is learning ?

"Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do when it ought to be done whether you like it or not." 

Thomas Huxley 

"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives."

Clay P. Bedford


"Education consists mainly of what we have unlearned."

Mark Twain

"Children have to be educated, but they have also to be left to educate themselves."

Abbé Dimnet, Art of Thinking, 1928

"I have never in my life learned anything from any man who agreed with me."

Dudley Field Malone
